How many f-ing pilots begin with a big, exciting action sequence, then after three minutes flash back to the character development? Is it a contractual thing? At this point in my life, I'm rejecting them on principle immediately after I see a title card on the screen stating "Six Weeks Earlier." I know some focus group told them the story started slow and an action sequence up front would be better, but if I don't know why a character is running through Washington DC, the action on its own is meaningless.
Download the pilot on iTunes for free if you want. I'm sorry I did. http://itunes.apple.com/us/tv-season/the-firm-season-1/id490745309 -- Kevin M. (RPCV) -- TV or Not TV ....
